d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for car-
rying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord 
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Dam-
aged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric 
shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an exten-
sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suit-
able for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. 
Always use tool in conjunction with a residual circuit 
breaker device.

3) Personal safety

a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not use 
a power tool while you are tired or under the in

fl

 uence 

of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inatten-
tion while operating power tools may result in serious 
personal injury.
b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. 
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety 
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropri-
ate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the 
off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with 
your 

fi

 nger on the switch or plugging in power tools that 

have the switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the 
power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating 
part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at 
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in 
unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew-
ellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from 
moving parts. Loose clothes jewellery or long hair can 
be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust ex-
traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con-
nected and properly used. Use of these devices can 
reduce dust related hazards.
h. Use clamps or a vice to hold work. It’s safer than us-
ing your hand and it frees both hands to operate tool.

4) Power tool use and care

a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power 
tool for your application. The correct power tool will do 
the job better and safer at the rate for which it was de-
signed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn 
it on and off. Any power tool that can not be controlled 
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c. Disconnect the plug from the power source before 
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or 
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures 
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and 
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or 
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools 
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or bind-
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other 
condition that may affect the power tools operation. If 
damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many 
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less 
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., 
in accordance with these instructions and in the man-
ner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking 
into account the working conditions and the work to be 
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different 
from intended could result in hazardous situation.

5) Service

a. Have your power tool serviced by a quali

fi

 ed repair 

person using only identical replacement parts. This will 
insure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

SAFETY RULES FOR CORDLESS DRILLS

•  Ensure the switch is in the off position before insert-

ing battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into pow-
er tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

•  Recharge only with the charger speci

fi

 ed by the 

manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type 
of battery pack may create a risk of 

fi

 re when used 

with another battery pack.

•  Use power tools only with speci

fi

 cally  designated 

battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may 
create a risk of injury and 

fi

 re.

•  Avoid damage that can be caused by screws, nails 

and other elements in your workpiece; remove them 
before you start working

•  Always check that the supply voltage is the same as 

the voltage indicated on the nameplate of the charg-
er (chargers with a rating of 230V or 240V can also 
be connected to a 220V supply)

•  In case of electrical or mechanical malfunction, im-

mediately switch off the tool or unplug charger from 
power source
